The second I read that Osama was "thrown to the sea as muslim tradition" I knew Obama was a fucking lying fuckwad who wanted to get votes.Nowhere in islam does it say you must throw dead people into a sea.

I also dont think it was Osama there but the main reason why it was thrown into the water was because the tomb may serve as a shrine for worship and people will come to it and pray (the heavy followers) and continue the ideas and teachings.

and for those who believe the theories and conspiracies, it is so the body could never be found or identified to be his or not.
